“How REI Branded Home Buyer Can Help”
Not every inheritance is a blessing. If you’ve just inherited a house in Spokane — and you’re feeling more overwhelmed than grateful — you’re not alone.
We talk to people every month in neighborhoods like Garland District and North Spokane who say the same thing:
“I inherited a house I don’t want. What do I do with it?”
Whether it’s full of old belongings, needs major repairs, or comes with legal headaches like probate or liens, here’s what you need to know.
First: You’re Not Stuck
If you inherited a house and you’re the legal heir, you don’t have to keep it. You have options:
- Sell it (even during or after probate)
- Renovate and rent it (requires time and money)
- Refuse the inheritance (disclaimer of interest)
- Gift it or donate it (tax implications may apply)
Most people choose to sell — especially if the property is out-of-state, needs work, or holds bad memories.
Real Spokane Story: A Heavy Inheritance
We helped a seller in Cheney who inherited their uncle’s house after he passed. It had sat vacant for 8 years and was full of old furniture, rodents, and roof damage.
They didn’t have the time, money, or emotional bandwidth to fix it up. We gave them a cash offer, handled probate coordination, cleared out the house for them, and closed in two weeks. No hassle. No listing.
Do You Have to Go Through Probate First?
If your name isn’t on the deed yet, you’ll likely need to go through probate. But don’t worry — we can still help.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we’ve walked Spokane families through the full probate-to-sale process. We’ll:
- Connect with your probate attorney
- Help gather needed documents
- Work with the court/titles for approval
- Coordinate a fast sale once you’re ready
Even during probate, we can make you a binding offer so you know what to expect once things clear.
What If the House Has Problems?
Inherited properties are often:
- Behind on taxes
- Filled with stuff
- In need of repairs
- Out-of-date
- Holding liens or violations
We buy as-is. No cleanouts. No inspections. No agent fees. We’ll take care of it all — even if the house has code violations, roof issues, or is in a challenging Spokane neighborhood.

About REI Branded Home Buyer
Real People. Real Stories. Real Solutions. We’re George and TJ — two regular guys who teamed up to create REI Branded Home Buyer, a local company with one simple mission: to help people sell their homes without stress, games, or pressure. We actually met at a local real estate meetup. A mutual friend randomly shouted, “Hey George, do you want to be this guy’s mentor?” George laughed and said, “Just give him my cell!” A coffee meeting later, and the rest is history. We've been working together ever since. Our passion for helping homeowners comes from personal experience. George was once homeless, so he deeply understands what it’s like to face housing uncertainty. TJ’s family went through a crisis and had to sell their home fast — with the help of a cash homebuyer. Those experiences shaped who we are and inspired us to create a company that treats people the way we wish we’d been treated. Let’s be real: the real estate world is full of shady companies, pushy salespeople, and sleazy homebuyers who care more about profit than people. We started REI Branded Home Buyer because we believe it should be the other way around — people first, profit second. We’re proud to call Spokane home. Our wives, Jenny and Michelle, love the slower pace of life here and all the outdoor beauty Washington has to offer. George and Jenny have two amazing daughters and two dogs — they love to travel and recently visited Japan to see their daughter abroad. TJ and Michelle are outdoor lovers through and through — backpacking, hiking, hunting, fishing, even rock climbing. Michelle’s become quite the mountaineer! If you’re thinking about selling a house — no matter the reason — we’d love to hear your story and see how we can help.
